Cloud Management with Juniper Mist Wired Assurance

Juniper Mist Wired Assurance, a cloud-based service driven by Mist AI to claim, configure, manage, and troubleshoot the EX2300-C, delivers AI-powered automation and service levels to ensure a better experience for connected devices. Wired Assurance leverages rich Junos switch telemetry data to simplify operations, reduce mean time to repair, and improve visibility. Wired Assurance offers the following features:

• Day 0 operations—Onboard switches seamlessly by claiming a greenfield switch or adopting a brownfield switch with a single activation code for true plug-and-play simplicity. 
• Day 1 operations—Implement a template-based configuration model for bulk rollouts of traditional and campus fabric deployments, while retaining the flexibility and control required to apply custom site- or switch-specific attributes. Automate provisioning of ports via Dynamic Port Profiles. 
• Day 2 operations—Leverage the AI in Juniper Mist Wired Assurance to meet service-level expectations such as throughput, successful connects, and switch health with key pre- and post-connection metrics (see Figure 2). Add the self-driving capabilities in Marvis Actions to detect loops, add missing VLANs, fix misconfigured ports, identify bad cables, isolate flapping ports, and discover persistently failing clients (see Figure 3). And perform software upgrades easily through Juniper Mist cloud.

Virtual Chassis Technology

The EX2300-C supports Juniper’s unique Virtual Chassis technology, enabling up to four interconnected EX2300-C switches to be managed as a single logical device and delivering a scalable, pay-as-you-grow solution for expanding network environments. The EX2300-C can also be connected to an existing Virtual Chassis configuration composed of EX2300 switches.

Figure 4: When deployed in a Virtual Chassis configuration, up to four EX2300-C switches can operate as a single, logical device.

While EX2300-C switches can be interconnected over either of the two front panel 10GbE uplink ports, these ports can also be configured as 1GbE uplinks to aggregation devices by disabling the Virtual Chassis technology.

When deployed in a Virtual Chassis configuration, the EX2300-C switches elect a primary and a backup switch based on a set of preconfigured policies or criteria. The primary switch automatically creates and updates the switching and optional routing tables on all other Virtual Chassis switch members. Switches can be added to or removed from the Virtual Chassis configuration without service disruption.

EX2300-C Virtual Chassis configurations operate as highly resilient unified systems, providing simplified management using a single IP address, single telnet/SSH session, single command-line interface (CLI), automatic version checking, and automatic configuration. The EX2300-C switches are also capable of local switching, so packets coming into a port destined for another port on the same switch do not have to traverse the Virtual Chassis, increasing forwarding capacities.

EX2300-C Virtual Chassis configurations implement the same slot/module/port numbering schema as other Juniper Networks chassis-based products, providing true chassis-like operations. By using a consistent operating system and a single configuration file, all switches in a Virtual Chassis configuration are treated as a single device, simplifying overall system maintenance and management.
